The Pacific halibut fishery has been modeled by the differential equation dy dt = ky 1 − y K where y(t) is the biomass (the tota
l mass of the members of the population) in kilograms at time t (measured in years), the carrying capacity is estimated to be K = 9×107 kg, and k = 0.75 per year. (a) If y(0) = 2×107 kg, find the biomass a year later. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) ×107 kg (b) How long will it take for the biomass to reach 4×107? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) years
